A network-enabled, affordable, reliable, and easy-to-deploy equipment hour meter for industrial machinery, prevent costly breakdowns, optimize maintenance, and extend machine life – no monthly fees
As a maintenance manager, facility manager, or engineer in manufacturing, you understand the critical importance of tracking equipment runtime for maintenance scheduling and performance optimization. But relying on manual logs or outdated systems can lead to inefficiencies, unexpected downtime, and increased costs.
Introducing the iTrixx® equipment hour meter – a cost-effective solution for precise runtime tracking and proactive maintenance scheduling. By connecting sensors to iTrixx digital and analog inputs, you can use the sensor data to activate the meter counter, and to monitor Equipment usage, machine uptime/downtime, operation counts, machine vibration, operator behavior (impacts) and more.
With iTrixx®, you gain comprehensive insights into your equipment’s performance, enabling data-driven maintenance decisions and operational improvements.
We understand that busy floor managers and maintenance professionals can’t always be tied to a desk. That’s why we’ve developed powerful mobile and desktop apps to keep you informed on the move. With iTrixx®, you’re always in control, whether you’re on the factory floor, in the office, or on the go.
Monitor your machine data anytime, anywhere. Perfect for floor managers who need real-time information at their fingertips.
Automatically saves data from all iTrixx devices on your network to a CSV file, simplifying data analysis and system integration.
Our most advanced app, designed for multi-location monitoring. Connect to an MQTT broker to track all your devices, regardless of their physical location.
Since 90 percent of machine maintenance is based upon hours instead of miles, the iTrixx Equipment Hour Meter is an ideal tool for keeping up with preventative maintenance schedules. This device can help extend the life cycle and performance of powered equipment as well as tracking a range of equipment across a warehouse, construction site, or multi-location company. The iTrixx® Wireless Hour Meter has proven its value across various industries.
Device used: iTrixx-NHM
A leading American tea company with multiple factories and hundreds of production machines faced challenges tracking runtime for each machine as their business expanded. They needed a solution to collect machine runtime data from each site and automatically send it to their management system (API). After discovering the iTrixx-NHM online, they installed one hour meter on each machine. This data collection automation has saved the company thousands of dollars in machine maintenance and prevented costly shutdowns due to timely maintenance.
Devices used: iTrixx-NHM and Koda 100
A US Federal government agency with hundreds of machines manufactured in the 1950s needed to integrate equipment data with their modern management software. After thorough testing and data security evaluation, they chose the iTrixx Network Hour Meter and Koda 100 controller to gather equipment runtime and cycle counts. The data is stored directly in an XML spreadsheet, maintaining a running log. They customized their software to send alerts for maintenance intervals, ensuring smooth operation of each machine.
Device used: iTrixx-NHM
A US manufacturer of forged and laminated rolled rings sought a fast and accurate way to track spindle times in their machine shop. The project manager discovered iTrixx-NHM through an online search and implemented it on their machines. The meter records time whenever a machine spins, allowing them to detect production hours for each machine. This precise data collection has helped them build an accurate efficiency percentage, leading to increased productivity and revenue.
Device used: iTrixx-WFMN
A renowned company in the deep foundation industry, managing a fleet of high-value, heavy construction equipment, needed a streamlined management system. They approached Linortek for an automated data retrieval solution that could integrate with their CMMS. After collaboration with the UpKeep team, Linortek developed a unique program using the MQTT protocol, enabling the iTrixx-WFMN to continuously feed data to the UpKeep system automatically.
“Forgital USA produces forged and laminated rolled rings used in a wide range of industries. We searched for a fast and accurate way to track spindle times in our machine shop. After conducting a brief online search, we connected with Linortek regarding its iTrixx IoTMeter. Although the solution was originally designed for maintenance, we easily adapted the device to our production needs.
We purchased four iTrixx NHM and installed them on our seven machines. Every time a machine spins, the meter starts recording time. We’re able to detect the date and hours when each machine is producing. All the data we collect helps us build a precise efficiency percentage which has enabled us to increase our productivity and revenue. The device is simple to use and easy to install, and Linortek’s customer service is great.“
